Description

We found this variety growing locally in northern Vermont decades ago, and was established long before that, having become wild. Such was the case in the northeast before the northwest took over the industry. This has moderate bittering and aroma compared with named varieties. We have found it to outgrow all other varieties here dramatically. Very cold hardy and vigorous. It will climb at least 25 feet, dying to the ground each year. Hops will slowly spread if you treat the soil well.

Available Services:

Tree Pruning
Proper pruning ensures a healthier tree, improves fruit size and increases fruit yield. Fruit trees should be pruned during winter dormancy. We’ll prune individual trees or an entire orchard.

Planting
We offer services for those who would like assistance in planting and/or maintaining trees and help with everything from staking trees to trellising grapes and berries. We will show you the proper procedures for caring for your home orchard or do the maintenance for you.

Custom Grafting
In addition to grafting the fruit trees we sell, we also offer custom grafting services. We can graft a hard to find cultivar, a reproduction from your own tree, or we can graft onto an existing tree on your property. New trees can be sent right away or grown a year here.

Consulting
We do site visits, help with soil and other tests, and planning. Included are written plans for the implementation and day to day operations of your future of existing plantings. Fees vary according to the extent of the operation. Contact us for further info.
